I have an 90' coupe with lincoln front rotors and ranger rears(5lug). Looking to upgrade to some 13" front rotors and discs in the back. What do you reccomend and where or who can do the install?

upgrade to the SN95 spindles and brakes so you can use the 13" cobra stuff.

+1 for that web site [patriot]

Do the Cobra or Mach 1 brake upgrade. I have seen them as low as $299 in MM&FF's. You will also need new front spindles, 5 lug wheels, and maybe a couple of other things.

I put SN95 front spindles on my 90LX and then 13" Cobra fronts. For the rear i when wirh '87 MK VII axles and caliper mounts. They fix with my axle housing but are about 3/4" wider. Makes wide wheel fitment tougher, but it works for small $$. Used Hawk street performance pads all round. went to Buttonwillow and had NO brake problems.
